I was on Etsy's Front Page!



I was so excited to see my work featured
in three different etsy Treasuries this weekend!
Here is a favorite that was on etsy's front page Saturday night,
showing off my Paris Office Girl journal
(second down on left.) The Treasury was curated by 3Squares.etsy.com
and the journal is for sale at VintageScraps.etsy.com

Vacationing with teenagers without wanting to kill them




Jerry Seinfeld was right: "There is no such thing as fun for the whole family."


Traveling with little ones was exhausting, true; but vacationing with teenagers is impossible! Assuming you've even found dates when they are all available at once, finding a suitable place is tough. But we've found it- hiking in the amazing Blue Ridge Mountains. We started when the youngest was 4 years old, and have gone back every year since. It works for even the most electronic of teens (that would be my 15 year old son). Rent a "cabin" (ie: gorgeous wooden house, with technology and hot tubs, reasonably priced when it's not ski season) park on the Blue Ridge Parkway, and hike for free. And if you hit a rock funny and blow out your ankle, 9 rescue workers will carry you back down in a metal basket, and even provide a morphine drip!
